On the Post-cure Case (UV Inks)

WHO determines successful UV ink curing?

Long before ink meets lamp, the effectiveness of a UV cure is set on course by the ink formulator. First, the change in finished substrate properties after curing is heavily influenced by the additives contained in the ink. Bean maintains, "Slip additives such as waxes and silicones, flow agents, and other materials can slowly or quickly come to the surface of the film and impact the performance of the ink."
